just watched lehmann's press thing after the loss last test...I swear to god he pussyfooted around every answer. I don't understand why there needs to be such a shroud of secrecy around the Australian team. How hard is to just say e.g. 'yes Shane Watson's form as a batsman is a bit concerning, and we would like him to do better' rather than making a phony attempt to pretend nothing is wrong.

Unfortunately for us Watson is Boof's boi. Any performance shortcoming is because he didn't get his arse powdered enough.
